This is a condition where your toes catch on the ground when you step forward, and you may lift your foot higher than usual when walking, or swing the leg outwards. Read more about falls and balance problems. For example, your ankle might turn over when you put weight on it. If you have weakness in your leg you may be more likely to slip, trip or fall. If you have weakness or paralysis, you may need help with everyday activities. Paralysis on one side of the body is called hemiplegia (‘half-paralysis’). Weakness on one side of the body is often referred to as hemiparesis (‘half-weakness’). If your muscles are weak you could have difficulties with walking, moving your arms or holding things. Nearly three-quarters of stroke survivors in the UK have leg weakness, and over three quarters have arm weakness.
